| Customer Reviews: Small package! Big Performance! October 19, 2009 Tool Driver (St. Louis, Missouri United States) I bought this to use with lathe spindle and bowl sanding. It works great! I have a 1.5 HP 20 gallon Emglo compressor and this tool works very well with this set up. I would definitley suggest not using a pancake compressor, but the 20 gal kept up. The ability to swap out sand paper quickly and easily with the hook and loop sandpaper is a nice feature. The sanding disc paper is not cheap, but does last a good while. The safety catch takes some getting use to the first few times, but then becomes second nature. The angled head allows you to get into tite spots very easily. I really like this tool and the price is very reasonable for the quality of the tool. Options are a 3 inch disc and an extension allowing you to get inside hollow forms. Great Tool!

great tool, this fits my small hand. The question of air power is not a problem for me as I am set up for lots of air. This came with a 2" disc. 3" is available and the discs readily screw on and off with the wrench that comes with the kit. Also 2 different length extensions are available for deep bowel sanding. As an aside comment, there are intermediate pads that can be placed between the H/L surface that allow different degrees of float for different curves etc. These pads are helpful to keep the original pad on the machine from getting worn down. These pads are available at a number of places that sell the sand paper.
GOOD TOOL January 13, 2009 Paul E. Meunier (Lakewood, California United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I really like this tool. It works very well for the purpose for which I bought it- working in tight places. I would further comment on a review I read BEFORE buying this tool. IT DOES REQUIRE A HIGH VOLUME OF AIR!! A "kiddie compressor" will not do! I have a 6 Hp/ 33 gallon compressor and it works OK for this tool. A larger system would be better. So, if you wish to use this tool with a small volume compressor, you may be dissapointed in the performance of this tool.

In the Canadian Woodworking magazine (Aug/Sep 08) it states this sander "is one of the few air sanders that can be operated on a portable air compressor" this is NOT true. This sander works less than one minute with a portable air compressor. I discovered later in the Woodcraft October Catalog that they note the sander requires a minimum of a 60 gallon capacity compressor or equiivalent to operate. I am sorry I bought this sander.
